Problem building App with Cordova

cordova
1

I was wondering what the issue is with my setup because i am unable to neither build android nor ios apps.
I have a windows 10 workstation where i can build the android fin via
ionic cordova build android
if i use the same command or ios my build request fails on my Apple Mac. It always fails

See “/private/tmp/ng-zvJMkB/angular-errors.log” for further details.
[ERROR] An error occurred while running subprocess ng.

    ng run app:ionic-cordova-build --platform=android exited with exit code 127.

and the log file does not provide lots of info

so i am wondering what the reason and how to fix

I suspect out-of-date Angular build tools. Can you post the contents of package.json?

The good news is that I have a strong suspect. The bad news is that it’s likely a critical part of your app. Is there any way you can try eliminating all dependencies on IgniteUI?

i removed the code from app as well as removed it from the package.json but still get the sam issue that it times out on the ES5 Bundle Generation. Also i don’t get this issue with same code on a windows when i build android, cant test IOS since that has to be done on MAC

Hmm, well, the error message changed, which I guess is progress. You may want to check tsconfig.json and this thread.

Yes the tsconfig.json did the trick, i was able to compile with ignite and without
Thanks
